Morphology

reassessment = assessment (transparent) = re + assess + ment

The meaning is a straightforward repetition or renewal of an existing assessment, so 're-' + 'assessment' is easy to interpret.

Etymology

The word reassessment combines the prefix re- ('again') and the verb assess ('to judge or find value'), so it literally means to 'judge again'. That's why a reassessment is a new evaluation you make after things change or you get new information.
